Element 79

A prime number for prime money Guest post by Robert Gore at Straight Line Logic

Change, like death, prompts psychological turmoil. Intellectually, most of us grasp that change is ceaseless, just as most of us realize we’re going to die. Emotionally, however, few embrace the former or accept the latter.

Humanity is in the throes of a change that is reversing a centuries-long trend. Power, in all of its aspects, is migrating downward. This epochal reversal has received scant intellectual recognition. Psychologically, it manifests as panic among the powerful and as newfound assertiveness among the formerly less powerful. It will take decades, perhaps centuries, to fully play out.

If Men Were Men, They’d Take Back Their Liberty [or — Be a Lion In Defense of Liberty]

“Americans either fight now to save America and freedom for America’s Children and Their Children’s Children and arrive on the other side with the forces of truth, liberty and life victorious over those of lies, tyranny and death, or we will have doomed future generations to a thousand years of darkness and lives spent in chains at the altar of the Leviathan, the totalitarian Super-Socialist State.” ~ Justin Smith, ‘End of the Line’ [June 26th 2020]

America has seen many dangerous and tough times from Her earliest beginnings, and still She stands, perhaps a bit tarnished and worse for wear, but until recently She always remained with our republic intact, regardless of the changes wrought upon Her by the Civil War, two world wars and the civil unrest and upheaval of the anti-war 1960s era. Our republic no longer stands for all practical intents and purposes, and the same government policies and societal mores that have made its demise a reality, after decades of decline and decay and turning away from our better angels, are acting and promising to change America into something unrecognizable as America, no matter what standing law reads or what new “laws” are passed tomorrow.

Putin Needs to Shake-Up Himself

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

Putin is conducting a large shake-up in the Russian government. He needs to give himself a good shaking as well.

Ramzan Kadyrov, leader of Russia’s Chechen providence said on Russia’s Rossiya TV channel:

“I believe that we need to attack more actively, we need to hit hard while there is time. This month we need to take the nearest territory, we definitely need to take Odessa and Kharkiv. Then sit this Zelensky down and force him to sign all the papers that Russia needs for the security of our state, citizens and the Russian-speakers who live on the territory of Ukraine.”

Should You Believe Faulty U.S. Crime Stats Or Your Own Lying Eyes?

Authored by James Varney via RealClearInvestigations,

Americans can be forgiven for suffering from whiplash regarding law and order. 

In recent weeks the Biden administration and many news outlets, including USA Today and The Hill, have touted declines in violent crime statistics to argue that America is becoming a safer place.

“Right now, with 2023 figures and early 2024, the trends are all pointing down, in a positive direction,” Jeff Asher, whose New Orleans-based AH Datalytics is developing his own “Real-Time Crime Index,” told RealClearInvestigations.

Conservative outlets, including City Journal and the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal, assert that minor declines in headline grabbers like homicides fail to capture what is really happening in the U.S.

Mass Starvation: Here’s Why Most Of America Is Completely Unprepared

Authored by Brandon Smith via Alt-Market.us,

The concept of mass starvation has not been in the forefront of American society for a very long time. Even during the Great Depression the US was majority agrarian and most people knew how to live off the land. In fact, the US has never suffered a true national famine. There have been smaller regional instances of famine (such as during the Dust Bowl in the 1930s), but nothing coming remotely close to the kinds of famines we have seen in Asia, the Eastern Bloc, Africa or the Middle East in the past 100 years.

$27,000 Gold

Guest Post by Jim Rickards

I’ve previously said that gold could reach $15,000 by 2026. Today, I’m updating that forecast.

My latest forecast is that gold may actually exceed $27,000.

I don’t say that to get attention or to shock people. It’s not a guess; it’s the result of rigorous analysis.

Of course, there’s no guarantee it’ll happen. But this forecast is based on the best available tools and models that have proved accurate in many other contexts.

Here’s how I reached that price level forecast…

An Army And Country At Their End

Guest Post by Moon of Alabama

Stephen Byren writes, correctly, that the purpose of the Russian offensive towards Kharkiv is to disintegrate the Ukrainian army:

To my mind, Russia’s objective is to force Ukraine’s army to chase after invading Russian units. The idea is to cause heavy casualties on the Ukrainian side and, if all goes according to plan, either to split Ukraine’s army into two, or disintegrate it altogether.In such a manner the idea is not just to take territory but to destroy Ukraine’s ability to resist. There are many indicators that Russia is having success in the ongoing operation.

General Kyrylo Budanov, the head of the Ukrainian military intelligence agency, (which includes foreign fighters and Nazis units,) agrees to that. He paints an bleak picture (archived):

Supreme Court Justices Thomas And Alito Issue Warnings About State Of America

Authored by Tom Ozimek via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),

In separate remarks at two different events on Friday, Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito issued warnings about the state of affairs in America today, including support for freedom of speech “declining dangerously” and the nation’s capital becoming a “hideous” place where cancel culture runs rampant.

Supreme Court Associate Justices Elena Kagan (L), Clarence Thomas ((2L), Samuel Alito (2R) and Chief Justice John Roberts (R) arrive for services for former President George H.W. Bush at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, on Dec. 3, 2018. (Pablo Martinez Monsivais/AP Photo)

 

Justice Thomas spoke at a conference of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit in Point Clear, Alabama, while Justice Alito delivered a commencement address at the Franciscan University of Steubenville, a Catholic college in Ohio, with both of the conservative-minded judges painting a dark picture—while encouraging action and offering hope.

At the Alabama event, Justice Thomas was asked to comment by the moderator—U.S. District Judge Kathryn Kimball Mizelle—about what it’s like to work “in a world that seems meanspirited.”

Former CDC director warns scientists are likely creating the next pandemic right now and it’s going to be a strain of bird flu designed to attack the human immune system

Dr. Robert Redfield spills the beans in interview with NewsNation.

Guest post by Leo Hohmann

Former CDC Director Dr. Robert Redfield provided a chilling commentary on the latest bird flu outbreak in a recent interview with NewsNation, suggesting that what we are seeing may not be due to a virus found in the natural environment but one augmented by human manipulation in a biolab.

In other words, this could be Covid 2.0, only worse, with a genetically modified pathogen tailored to spread specifically among humans.

Redfield told NewsNation’s Elizabeth Vargas that he’s worried about bird flu, because “Right now, it takes five amino acid changes for it to be effectively infecting humans. That’s a pretty heavy species barrier – but this virus is already in 26 mammal species, as you most recently saw cattle. But in the laboratory, I could make it highly infectious for humans in just months.”
